I "accidentally" shorted at 1546 (damn OEC software, pisses me off sometimes) and got out at 1545.75 so I can't complain. Usually when I fat finger it I end up in the red.

Rule of 10 and 10:30 around the corner, time for a dip?

I'm going to go long a bazillion in one account and short a bazillion in another until the announcement tomorrow and have my itchy trigger finger on the buy and sell buttons. After the announcement and my blazing fast fingers make the right call I will buy my own island and name it...

Dig around on this site, will answer some questions: greencompany.com

Dec ER2 fell off a cliff after the open. Something does smell a little fishy.

I also get phone calls at work from people wanting me to invest in oil wells, oil pipelines and once a company that said in their last SEC filing that they weren't sure they had enough cash to function going forward. Last week a guy wanted me to invest in a movie that is going to be made with...

I use OEC also and have been underwhelmed by their customer service. Today I was trying to place a trade premarket and it rejected my order because my account would have been -$182,000 (no idea where they were pulling these bogus numbers). I used their online chat to figure it out. After...

What happened to all the rumors about a surprise cut today? I think a cut will have to wait until next week (if they do one at all before the meeting) as it is almost noon ET now.

It's 10:30, time for the reversal crew to get to work and push this market up! :D

The 10:30 reversal crew was a little late this morning, but it looks like they have it moving back up (for the time being) a little ways.

From the Marketwatch.com web site: "This market is going down like free beer. ... I would say if there had been a day when we're trying to price in a worst-case scenario, this might be it." — Art Hogan, Jefferies & Co. I like drinking up the free beer! Just wanted to share. :D

I believe that is how it typically works.

They don't always sell 100% of the company in the IPO, they keep some stock in the company to use later.

Sorry for the stupid question, today is the day to start trading September futures contracts right? Where can I find this information? I looked on cme.com but what I found was just settle dates.

I came across this sometime last year and thought it was interesting and original. A twist on solar power in a way. http://www.enviromission.com.au/index.htm

I'm with you on this one, I just wish I was the one who thought of it first.

Huge block of orders sitting on 1514.25 bid, not sure what to make of it. Any ideas?

My bad, I assumed it was a trailing stop. Great trading apex!
